Congrats. Have to admit I haven't heard to many negative things about the XD'S, and the negative things I did hear I had to question and chalk it up to internet babble. I've been waiting for the XD'S 9mm to come out. Springfield seems to come out with one or two new models of some sort every year so maybe in 2013 we'll see the XD's in a 9mm.

You might want to re-consider the XDs .45acp, which is smaller and slightly thinner than the G26. Both use the same retention holster.

The XDs comes with 5 round magazines and 7 rounders are available.

I got one from one of the first batches. I have about 1500 through it by now. Never a problem until I went about 600 straight w/o cleaning and had an FTE. Never an issue since. It's been on my hip for 14 hours so far today.

I kind of like my G26,it's an all round gun that performs well in many rolls. For the most part. My EDC is a Kahr PM9 and I've never found another small 9mm that I like better for CC. The XD'S in a 9mm sounds like it might be interesting if it ever comes out. However if it's the same size as a Shield or a Walther PPS then I'd pass on it. Not that I'm the slightest bit unhappy with my PM9,but I'm always looking at new possibilities.

The two 7 round mags I got are junk.

I too have issues with both 7 round magazines. Third round always misfeeds.

Well over 1,000 rounds with mine now, ser. # 519XXX. Haven't had a single hiccup with a mix of Winchester White Box 230gr ball, Federal 230gr ball, Remington 230gr Golden Sabres (125 rounds) and a few Tula 230gr ball. There have been reports of issues, but I have experienced none of them. Great little pistol and I too cannot wait for it in 9mm, will have to get the .45 a little brother.
